| Beschrijving keerzijde | A forepart of a rose in three-quarter view occupies the central field, the emblematic device of Rhodes, rendered in high relief. The magistrate's name ΔΙΟΓΝΗΤΟΣ is inscribed in Greek letters along the upper arc of the field, while the ethnic abbreviation Ρ Ο appears flanking the lower portion of the rose. The entire design is enclosed within a neat border of raised pellets. A small star or floral symbol appears in the lower right field as a secondary control mark. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Rhodian gold fractions of this period are genuinely scarce — the island's monetary economy ran overwhelmingly on silver, and gold issues were struck in small quantities, likely for specific transactional needs rather than general commerce. The magistrate name Diognetos appearing on this piece places it within a well-documented sequence of eponymous officials who oversaw Rhodian coinage, though the precise dating within the 125–88 BC window remains debated among specialists.
The terminal date reflects the Mithridatic siege of 88 BC, after which Rhodian coinage patterns were substantially disrupted.
